Queen Victoria's journal ; 10th June 1849.
Sie schreibt über den Chinese Luncheon Room, Buckingham Palace :
"We breakfasted as we already dined last night, in the new room that has been made for us, a fine large lunchroom, very handsomely fitted up with furniture &c., from the Pavilion at Brighton, including the Chinese pictures [by Robert Jones], which were on the Dining-room walls there, the doors with the serpents &c. which had belonged to that room. A dragon has been painted on the ceiling to harmonise with the rest. The small sitting room is also furnished with things from the Pavilion."
